Re: [OpendTect_Users] Automatic 2D seismic data import with plugin

[Arnaud Huck]

Dear Artur,

If you are developing your own C++ plugin, you can create a dedicated dialog to do the work you describe. This dialog would be an alternative to the free dialog accessible from Import -> Seismic Data -> Simple File -> 2D as you mention, with a different GUI.
This can be done without doubt. Then you plugin can create its own access points for the users:

1- Another menu entry
2- A toolbar action (preferably in your own dedicated toolbar)

Examples on how to create such dialogs and access points can be found in the programming tutorial:

https://doc.opendtect.org/7.0.0/doc/Programmer/Default.htm#3_the%20tutorial%20plugin/3_2_uitut_plugin.htm?TocPath=3%2520The%2520tutorial%2520Plugin%257C_____2

Please also note there is a dedicated email address for such requests, for developers: devel...@opendtect.org

Let me know if you have more questions.

Best regards,

Hi Artur,

OpendTect supports a Command Driver (Utilities -> Tools menu) for recording workflows and rerunning them. Recorded scripts can be edited, to automate repetitive work. Below is the window for recording and running scripts. 

And here is the script editor window:

More info can be found in the User Doc Chapter 9.2.3 Command Driver and the Command Driver Manual.

I hope this is what you need.

Best regards,

Paul.

I am developing a plugin that needs to automatically import 2D seismic data (i'm working with binary files) and make it immediately available for visualization. The manual process would typically be Import -> Seismic Data -> Simple File -> 2D -> fill in the fields. I'd like to know if there's a way to do this process in code. I can get the necessary data from my plugin; I just need to know if there's a way to do this process through code and then visualize the Line after creating it.

Thank you in advance.
